No One's Son
''No One's Son'' () is a 2008 Croatian film directed by Arsen Anton Ostojić. It is based on a play by Mate Matišić. The film won the Big Golden Arena for Best Film at the 2008 Pula Film Festival Pula Film Festival () is an annual Croatian film festival, established in 1954. It is held in a Roman amphitheater known as the Pula Arena. Pula Film Festival is the oldest Croatian film festival and is usually held in the summer, in July or Aug ..., the Croatian national film awards. Reception "The film is based on the play of the same name by Mata Matišić, so it is to blame for the clumsy dramatic structure in which the central part of the action is a large, occasionally not very clear flashback. Politically speaking, the film has a devastating content, with the message that the current Croatian reality is built on false foundations, but the effect is modest, because the viewer stops caring about what is happening on the screen already after half an hour.", wrote Nenad Polimac. ...

Film People From Split, Croatia
A film, also known as a movie or motion picture, is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, emotions, or atmosphere through the use of moving images that are generally, since the 1930s, synchronized with sound and (less commonly) other sensory stimulations. Etymology and alternative terms The name "film" originally referred to the thin layer of photochemical emulsion on the celluloid strip that used to be the actual medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Many other terms exist for an individual motion-picture, including "picture", "picture show", "moving picture", "photoplay", and "flick". The most common term in the United States is "movie", while in Europe, "film" is preferred. Archaic terms include "animated pictures" and "animated photography". "Flick" is, in general a slang term, first recorded in 1926. It originates in the verb flicker, owing to the flickering appearance of early films. ...
